Google Flights is working in Australia.
 
Google have turning on Google Flights in Australia, so you can type "Brisbane to London" and have it give you possible flights/tickets etc. You'll have to go elsewhere to book though.

:flypig:

This has been a public information announcement.

Nice.

A monthly grid view on pricing would be a welcome addition.

Can somebody enlighten me as to what is new about this? I have been using this tool for years to book flights.

You can do that, just click on the calendar icon besides the date and you will have all prices month to month.

Yes, sometimes you find cheaper tickets in Skyscanner, sometimes in Google Flights. I don't necessarily look for the cheapest one but a combination of factors such airline, stopovers, if I have miles to redeem, etc.

Me too. Length of stopovers is a bit of a factor for me.
